FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://talkingfilms.net/civil-war-review-a-thought-provoking-dive-into-war-journalism-and-moral-complexity/ "Civil War attests to Alex Garland’s fascinating ability to create impactful narratives that provoke deep discussions, beyond his unwavering commitment to the t...

by r96sk

Terrific movie! <em>'Civil War'</em> is a blast from beginning to end, I enjoyed everything about it to be honest. It features an interesting story that is told with excellence. My biggest takeaway is the sound design, which is outstanding; literally from the first seconds post-BBFC black card. ...

by CinemaSerf

Nope, sorry, this just didn't work for me. It appears that there is a civil war amongst these United States. California and Texas have seceded from the Union and Florida seems to be having a wobble too. The President (Nick Offerman) makes a speech assuring the rest of his country that they've nothi...

by Brent Marchant

Cautionary tales often have some of the most significant impact when brought to life on the big screen, and that’s certainly the case with the latest offering from writer-director Alex Garland. The filmmaker’s gripping tale of a quartet of journalists (Kirsten Dunst, Wagner Moura, Stephen McKinley ...

by edrddz

The film, although set in a context of armed conflict, deviates from the traditional war theme to focus on war photojournalists, promoting a perspective on the work of such professionals. Through a series of small scenes, the director seeks to compose a portrait of these professionals' actions on t...

by MovieGuys

by dumasori

**Not bad** I stared with low expectations, but this movies indeed turned out to be a good one. Fantastic story, acting, direction. No major complaints. Entertaining and thought provoking. Well done!

by akerusan

I really enjoyed this movie, wan't expecting much and got a lot. recommend.

by Chandler Danier

I wonder if the older guy gets with the young lady. He definitely worked for it. Bet he knows exactly how many near death experiences it takes before they fall into his arms. Seems like a lot just to bang someone, though. News, news, news. Gotta get that story.

by TheSceneSnobs

This film is wonderfully chilling, with an atmosphere that haunts you long after the credits roll. The familiar settings of cities, towns, and roads serve as a stark backdrop to a raging war within the United States, creating a sense of unsettling normalcy disrupted by chaos. The film’s atmosphe...

by PeaceMeal

I was very interested in watching Civil War for a number of reasons. Mainly I wanted to see how the various political sides were portrayed in the very divided "United" States. Indeed, there are many countries in the world that are near evenly split amongst two groups: High Government Involvement (...

by pacrat173

A horrifying yet amazing ride from start to end Full of amazing shots,heart breaking deaths and a take on film making I’ve never seen I loved almost every second of this film. I would like to know more about the before and after of the film though
